Its gone viral on several social media platforms over the past week.
But its not true.
From that claim around 10:00 p.m.

But the claim that Thompson was killed over this motive related to a sitting congresswoman isnt true.
Theres no evidence Thompson was going to testify against Pelosi for insider trading or anything else.
But, oddly enough, Thompson was himself accused of insider trading before he was killed.
The Hollywood Firefighters Pension Fund filed a lawsuit against Thompson and other executives at UnitedHealthback in May.
The stock went down only after it became publicly known the DOJ had opened an investigation.
The suit states Thompson sold about $15 million worth of stock.
Why are people online spreading this false story about Pelosi?
We can only assume theyre either actively or unintentionally spreading false information that helps Trump.
But its not clear whos actually behind the account.
